Mobile App Stores Head-to-Head [Infographic]

Posted By Eric Dye on June 18, 2013

I used to work at a video game store.

When customers were trying to decide which system to purchase, this is what I would tell them:

“Focus on the game library.”

I think the same can be said for smartphones and tablets. There are many apps that can be used on multiple devices–sometimes better and sometimes worse–but what can really separate the different OS’ are the exclusive apps. If you find that your favorite apps can only be found on a particular platform, that’s the direction you should probably go.

Take a look at how the number of apps compare from app store to app store:

How-To Manage Your Privacy with Google+ Photo Albums

Posted By Chip Dizárd on June 18, 2013

Google+ is quickly becoming one of my favorite social networks and part of it is because of the ability to share photos with specific groups of people. Recently, I took photos at my daughters kindergarten graduation, but I didn’t want to post the photos publicly and I didn’t want to put them on my Dropbox. I decided to post them on Gooogle+ and share with all of the parents.

Here’s how I did it:

The Pope, Kids and Honesty

Posted By James Cooper on June 18, 2013

A lot of things have been said about how the new Pope Francis has done things in a different way. This video is another example of this.

Recently thousands of Jesuit school children had a chance to meet and see the Pope and actually ask spontaneous questions!

What’s really striking is the honesty – of both the children and the Pope. Continue Reading…

Important Feedly Update!

Posted By Eric Dye on June 17, 2013

If you’ve logged into Feedly, recently, you’ve probably seen this message:

“[IMPORTANT] Prepare for the final step of the migration from Google Reader to the feedly cloud.”

Huh? Wha?

A Feedly update to complete migration? I thought I was already migrated?

If you’re like me (have tons of feeds), you may have had a slight moment of panic as the thought of losing all your feeds swept over you.

Here’s what the Feedly message means:

Fear, Resistance and Shipping Your Dreams

Posted By Marcus Williamson on June 17, 2013

fear

Recently I’ve been talking with my friend about the process of doing what we love to do.

We didn’t share any secrets that haven’t already been shared before. Like people say, there’s nothing new under the sun. Something we made a point of though was that ‘talk’ points you down one direction and ‘action’ points you down another.

We talked about both, and I felt like sharing my synopsis with some added thoughts on the back end of course.

I feel like I should say too, that my friend and I are not all this and that. He’s a commercial and wedding photographer and I design stuff. We try to push past our own fears in order to see the end goal in clear sight.

So yeah, this first part is about fear…

VBS Made Easier with Roll Call Child Check-In System

Posted By Eric Dye on June 17, 2013

by the book child check in system vbs

VBS can be hairy and sometimes a little scary if your outreach was a success and you have more kids show-up than what you expected–a good problem I would say.

One thing that can really make VBS go smoother is a streamlined child check-in system. Not only will guests feel more comfortable and have confidence in your church’s ability to keep their children safe and accounted for, but starting VBS on the right foot is sure to make the rest of the VBS experience more satisfying.

Here’s a closer look at how your typical child check-in system works:

About Us:

We've been insanely-interested in exploring how the Church, ministries, and non-profits use technology to effectively fulfill their mission to the world.

With a small blog that started in September of 2008 we grew faster than we had ever dared to dream expanding into a network of blogs that reached more than a quarter million people every single month.

In May of 2011 we re-focused our efforts bringing all of the content back into one solidified brand - a "digital magazine" of resources that still serve the same industries and that still has the same curious heartbeat that started this movement.

Join us - there is still much to be explored.
